Verdict
G-Zombie is a bold attempt at bringing the zombie genre to Telugu cinema, but it falls short due to poor writing, inconsistent performances, and weak execution. While the concept of a medical experiment gone wrong could have been intriguing, the narrative fails to engage or scare effectively.
